Contamination of either the windscreen
or the wiper blades with foreign matter
can reduce the effectiveness of the
windscreen wipers.
When the wipers no longer clean the
windshield adequately, the blades
may be worn or cracked, and require
replacement.
Common sources of contamination
are insects, tree sap, and hot wax
treatments used by some commercial
car washes. If the blades are not wiping
properly, clean both the window and
the blades with a good cleaner or mild
detergent, and rinse thoroughly with
clean water.
CAUTION
śꢀ In order to prevent damage to the
bonnet and the wiper arms, the wiper
arms should only be lifted when it is
the top wiping position.
śꢀ Always return the wiper arms to the
windscreen before driving.
